  • Hello, and welcome to the channel! This is part two of my Northwestern University series. In the first episode, I talked specifically about my experience in NU’s journalism school. This episode I’m giving five tips for any incoming freshmen or transfers coming into Northwestern. From the school’s hustle hustle culture to extracurriculars, we're getting into everything! I hope you walk away from this video with some solid advice on how to make your NU experience the best it can be.

    A lot of this seemed geared towards undergrads but was still useful, thanks! Just committed to Northwestern for my PhD starting this fall.

    I am a Kellogg alum from the early 90s when it was the top rated graduate business school in the country. I made some good friends that I have to this day, as everyone was so smart and also gracious. The faculty was very respectful of the students. I was in the part time evening program (Chicago Gold Coast) and my employer paid my tuition which was pretty great of course. A point I would add is that the El and Metra run from Evanston to downtown Chicago so no, you are not isolated in Evanston. There is an alcove on the lake with a tiny beach on campus and I took sailing classes one summer. There is a beautiful newer recital hall with a view of the Chicago skyline. It’s a bit of rarefied air there and was a life-changing experience for me.

    I am an Evanston resident. I don't believe it is quite as wealthy as you say. Now Winnetka is a very wealthy suburb.
    While I wish there were more affordable apartments, the area I live in (SE) does have several affordable apartment buildings. My 1 bedroom apartment is $830 a month.
    Just looking at the downtown area can scew one's perception.
    But I agree that it is advisable to do research and use the intercampus shuttle or public trans. to check out Chicago.

    • @cjscorner6302
      @cjscorner6302  2 года назад +6

      Congrats on getting ready to start your masters! I don't have the best advice for this ... since I lived on campus all four years. But my biggest tip is to live with roommates! Five of my friends stayed at 1700 Hinman. It's an apartment only a couple blocks from campus and splitting the rent, they only had to pay about $750 each. But studios/one-bedrooms in Evanston can be quite pricey!
